 Together, these features provide powerful security controls to ensure that users only see the data they are authorized to access and interact with. However, there is no "page-level" security, you can limit what viewers see in the sense that there will be no visible drop-down menu link but they can still access the content if provided with the link, which they can copy and paste into a browser.

 #### Assigning roles for RLS
 
 RLS allows you to restrict access to rows of data based on the characteristics of the user viewing the data. For example, you might want to ensure that sales representatives can only see data for the customers they are responsible for.
 
 1.  **Define Roles**: In Power BI Desktop, create roles and define RLS rules using the GUI or DAX expressions in the "Manage Roles" section.

 #### Define permissions for OLS
 
 OLS in Power BI is about controlling who can see and interact with specific parts of your reports and dashboards.
 
 For example:

 1.  **Identify Objects**: Determine which objects in your Power BI content need restricted access.
 
 2.  **Define Access Permissions**: Decide who should view, edit, or interact with each object using roles.
